This year I crashed skiing in March and I am still fighting back and hip ~ Not running much ... so I will be happy with a 10:59.<br /><br />I will see you on Sunday morning! Well at least before the race and the 1st 1/2 mile and after you turn around and I am still heading out.Running with MTPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07818038152767108506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-59560492455694100962013-10-07T16:23:24.416+02:002013-10-07T16:23:24.416+02:00I've only ever done one of them but I loooove ...I've only ever done one of them but I loooove those Wednesday night races. It may be partially your fault but right now the upcoming race that I am most excited about is a 5 mile mountain race, up and down a mountain on technical trail. <br /><br />See, Duluth isn't so bad;)<br /><br />AliciaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-45508696345820041002013-10-06T20:44:55.630+02:002013-10-06T20:44:55.630+02:00Glacial Trail is WAY harder than Chippewa, mostly ...Glacial Trail is WAY harder than Chippewa, mostly due to fallen leaves covering hidden rocks.SteveQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943650844671498074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-86648063303006050802013-10-05T13:05:05.053+02:002013-10-05T13:05:05.053+02:00Back in NYC my VCTC was putting on cross-country 5...Back in NYC my VCTC was putting on cross-country 5k races on Thursday night. Those were always fun and a lung buster! I ran one a week before WS100 and one a week after and that was time when I could at least move, if not compete, after an ultra:)<br />Strive together is a great thing.<br />My favorite song lately "It's raining man" - especially for lifting weights.Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493291972954387932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-63414806608591499022013-10-04T23:52:12.497+02:002013-10-04T23:52:12.497+02:00Thank you Running with MTP (aka Micahel Henze??)

I should not say that, but I don't think Glacial Trail is easier than Chippewa. Time will tell, though. Very good information. I am glad the course records set by Cassie are quite far out of my reach. See you next Sunday?sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-1811172167617966932013-10-04T20:42:54.304+02:002013-10-04T20:42:54.304+02:00I hope the two of you enjoy the Glacial Trail 50k ...I hope the two of you enjoy the Glacial Trail 50k and 50M.<br /><br />I am not sure what the overall course record for the 50k is, but is not held by Cassie, she hold the female 50k and 50M records.
